A VScript that simply makes sounds muffled and reverbed whenever you're black & white (on your third strike) or incapped and nearly dying, making it a bit more dramatic or "cinematic". Basically applies a DSP preset when these conditions are met.

Purely ear candy and has no advantage whatsoever, sounds affected by this might be a bit too obscured and muffled, thus probably making it hard to tell where Special Infected are located for example.

NOTE:

  • "Intense" SFX might take a while to kick in if you're actively not taking damage.
  • If for whatever reason your sound is still muffled when it shouldn't be, type dsp_player 0 in the console.

This will only work in singleplayer or a locally hosted server.
